Abstract
This paper propose a self-assembly robot based on distributed control systems unlike centralized control systems. Our aim is to achieve self-assembly systems which adapt to environmental changes. We develop simple modules so that they behave phototaxis as a case study. These modules are equipped with led and sensor as output and input, vibration motor as heat, and perform like converter. Experimental results show that the developed modules can combine and convey their energies in response to environment changes.
